00:00in the end of an error that's not a typo the end of an error in New York Aaron
00:07Rodgers two-year tenure with the Jets is now officially coming to a close a new
00:12regime led by Aaron Glenn and Darren Moogie they have decided Aaron Rodgers
00:17is not going to return as their quarterback this upcoming season
00:22according to Jake laser of Fox Sports DRS Aaron Rodgers flew back to New
00:27Jersey last week to meet with the Jets brass about his future with the team
00:31only to be told by the Jets brass we're making a move in a different direction
00:36at the quarterback position can't blame them now we wait on Aaron Rodgers to see
00:42what his future is going to be in the NFL 20 NFL seasons now 41 years old
00:50will he return to the National Football League that is the question by the way
00:56Jets fans accountability as I said last week is back in the building you have to
01:01be excited by this news coming out oh no understand this Ben the Jets don't even
01:06know who their quarterback is going to be next year but they know it can't be
01:09Aaron Rodgers and I said when the new GM comes in and the coach comes in Woody
01:13Johnson said like oh absolutely they want him back but he'll be back the fact
01:17that they were able to get in the room together and say we can't I know you
01:20paid this guy a lot of money we're gonna eat a lot of dead cab space but let me
01:23build this foundation here we can't go another year and have Aaron Rodgers
01:27sidetracked so many things in the locker room or try to talk to Woody Johnson
01:30over the general manager or head coach's head here this shows me that Aaron Glenn
01:35understands what it takes to build a football team from the ground up and
01:39he's going to do that yes it's gonna hurt the team because you're gonna eat
01:4250 to 60 million dollars in dead cab space but the sign of a new coach coming
01:46in going like I don't care who my quarterback is the record who cares what
01:51it will be let me build this thing into a winning organization Jets fans as I
01:55said congratulations you're on the path to success now and it starts immediately
02:00DRS more than likely you saw it there a June 1st designation meaning if you are
02:06cut after June 1st the dead cap hit and what it costs your team annually is
02:11going to be less you are still on the hook for what the remainder of the
02:16contract is owed out around 49 million dollars estimated for Aaron Rodgers but
02:21only 14 mil of a dead cap hit for 2025 if Aaron Rodgers is released after June
02:291st which would be the plan now Aaron Rodgers for himself does he want to come
02:34back to the football does he want to come back to the National Football League
02:37return somewhere else or retire DRS what do you think will be this election it's
02:45got to be a good spot because this isn't going to be one of those where
02:48hey let me go to a bad football team just looking for a name here to try to
02:51sell some tickets is it one of those intriguing spots where he might be able
02:54to land in San Francisco if the Brock Purdy negotiations don't go well is it
02:59gonna be the Minnesota Vikings who say you know what JJ McCarthy still at the
03:02knee injury still a young kid here maybe he can learn behind Aaron Rodgers but
03:05let's let's let's be honest here it wasn't as if Aaron Rodgers is leaving
03:09the Jets in a power position that was a disastrous two years that showed him
03:13getting older and not able to hold up behind an average offensive line so is
03:18he just able to go to the 49ers and get it all back together I don't think so
03:22this is a tough look for Aaron Rodgers to me players want to go out on their own
03:26terms if he retires he's not going out on his own terms by being let go by the
03:31New York Jets
